This needs to be moved back to 100000 (number) for consistency with other articles on integer > 999. This issue was already voted on a couple of years ago and the commaless format was agreed on. PrimeFan22:31, 21 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
This article claims that 107777 is the smallest number requiring 16 syllables in English. What about 77777? Ok I may be wrong but please bear with me: se-ven-ty-se-ven-thou-sand-se-ven-hun-dred-se-ven-ty-se-ven... Where's my (probably stupid) mistake? — Hillel04:18, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And by the way, even if it was, it would not be the smallest number but the smallest natural number requiring 16 syllables in English... I'm gonna change that but my original question still stands. And I'm gonna add one: are these syllables count properties worth mentioning at all? — Hillel04:24, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You're definitely right that it should be "smallest natural number." As for syllable counts, it needs to be clarified which dialect of English is being used. That these numbers are listed in (sequence A002810 in the OEIS) and OEIS: A045736 is an argument that they're worthy of mention here. A counter-argument would be that neither sequence has the "core" keyword. PrimeFan21:04, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
117067 is a prime vampire number as that concept is defined in the linked article at vampire number#Variants. However, I can understand a reader can get confused. I have changed the link formatting of the entry to:

Comment This page is part of a long-standing consistent naming convention, where a bare number is about the AD year (123 is about AD 123) and integers are disambiguated as 123 (number) etc. We are in the process of moving pages to make 1to100 lead to the integers, following a detailed RM in which the main argument was that (for example) the year AD 77 is not the primary topic of the term 77. It is equally true that AD 100000 is not the primary topic of 100000, so in isolation this RM is a clear Support. However, it makes little sense to move this page whilst leaving 2147483647 (number) in place. It might be better to discuss more widely and to move all numbers above a certain threshold (3000?) at the same time and in a consistent manner. As a minor point, the comma is not a universal thousands separator, even in the English speaking world. 100000, although slightly harder to read, is the canonical representation.

Support – Would also support standardizing all long numbers to include commas and exclude the unnecessary "(number)" qualifier. — JFGtalk21:37, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Support, but only if part of standardization. WikiProject Numbers needs to maintain the {{num}} template, and ad hoc moves make matters difficult for the project with little benefit to the encyclopedia. — Arthur Rubin(talk)13:03, 1 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Y I merged them, it does flow better this way, there is no harm in having one longer section than the rest, we happen to input more information in this range likely since we identify with them more as they are not as large as the rest (and because they start with 1, a simple number to grasp on the onset).
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Pupsterlove02 talk • contribs 15:56, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
